Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Chapter 508: The Simple Surrender Ceremony

The Argentines had surrendered, and Major Paulson began to clear the battlefield. What he found difficult to accept was that this time 37 comrades stayed in the Falkland Islands forever. The 530 people who came from Xiangjiang were fully equipped and could continue to fight at this time.

There were less than 400 people, which made it difficult for Major Paulson, who was leading the troops to participate in the war for the first time, to accept it for a while.

But what Major Paulson didn't know was that this record had shocked the British. No commander in the history of the British army could match this record. Even in the Age of Discovery, no general had ever set on the Empire.

Can do better than him.

After cleaning the battlefield, Major Paulson came to the commander of the Afghan army. When he saw the opponent's military rank, even though he was the winner, Major Paulson still saluted the military salute first to show respect. The British did a pretty good job in this area, at least

The aristocratic etiquette was well maintained; Major General Menendez also returned a military salute.

Major Paulson said: "I am Major Paulson-Butt, commander of the 12th Marine Battalion of the British Empire. Please report your name, position and rank, General."

Major General Menendez did not expect that the young commander in front of him was Paulson Bute, the same Paulson Bute who captured South Georgia Island and attacked the presidential palace. But as a general, he must behave as he should.

, then said: "Major General Menendez, the supreme commander of the Malvinas Islands of Argentina; Mr. Major, I am your prisoner now. Please treat my soldiers well in accordance with the Geneva Convention on War."

Paulson-Bute heard that this was the supreme commander of the Afghan army, so it could be said that the war was over. So he said happily: "No problem, but please write a letter of surrender so that I can follow the Geneva War Convention

Treat Afghan soldiers.”

Major General Menendez knew that as the defeated, he had no choice, so he had no choice but to return to the headquarters and write the letter of surrender. After a while, the letter of surrender was completed, and Paulson-Bute read it carefully.

Letter of surrender:

I, Major General Menéndez, Commander of the Argentine Army, Navy and Air Force in the Falkland Islands, surrender unconditionally to Major Paulson Butt, the representative of Her Majesty's Government.

Under the provisions of this agreement, all Afghan troops stationed in the Falklands will go to the location designated by Major But to hand over their guns, ammunition, various weapons, and various tools of war designated by Major But or other British officers.

Once this agreement comes into effect, in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Convention signed in 1949, all Afghan troops will be treated honorably and obey all relevant instructions on movement and centralized accommodation.

It is also applicable to Argentine garrisons deployed around Port Stanley, East/West Falkland and other outer islands.

Signed: Major General Menendez, Commander of the Argentine Armed Forces

Signed: Major Paulson-Butt

Since the twin wars were more intense than in the previous life, the war lasted half a month longer. This was one of the main reasons why so many people were sacrificed by the British and Afghans. However, Paulson-Butt made a serious mistake.

It's just that he doesn't have the right to accept the total surrender of the Afghan army. After all, he is not the supreme commander on the battlefield, at best he is a commando captain.

The achievements he has made have already made people envious, and this time he has stolen the limelight from his superiors. If he does not handle it well, it will cause a lot of trouble in the future. Fortunately, the limelight is at its peak at this time, and the war has been won, so there is no problem.

People feel that he is taking over for others.

After receiving the news of the surrender of the Argentine army, the commander-in-chief of the task force, Admiral John Federhouse, immediately reported the news to the country. Although it was already late at night, the whole of Britain was boiling again. After learning that it was again

Paulson-Butt led the team to capture the enemy's headquarters before achieving victory, which made the British people want to see what this legendary major looked like. Even the Queen asked whether Major Butt was

He has three heads and six arms, otherwise how could he be so powerful.

The British army began to clean up the battlefield. Although they looked down upon the weapons and equipment of the Argentines, they were weapons after all. If someone disobeyed orders and opened fire on them, it could kill people.

John Federhaus took Prince Andrew to the Falkland Islands, both of whom wanted to know the situation immediately. As a representative of the royal family, Prince Andrew had to comfort the wounded soldiers. This country nominally belongs to their family.

After Paulson-Bute saw the two of them, he quickly stepped forward and saluted. He had just been dazzled by the victory, and even a little carried away, but now he has sobered up. In fact, many things were given to him by Heiyun employees.

There are traces of Bao Zixuan in the background, but he only gets the credit. This is also an investment, and the return will definitely not be low.

John Federhaus smiled and said: "Major Paulson Boot, you have once again brought surprise to the entire British Empire. You could have been promoted based on your military exploits, but the Queen and the Prime Minister called and said that you had to wait until you returned to London.

Promotion together during the celebration, I believe you will become an idol of the British Empire by then."

Paulson-Butt: "It doesn't matter what honors I can get personally. Now I am mainly concerned about what the soldiers who died in the battle will get. After all, most of the soldiers are civilian children, and their families are not very wealthy. They were all brought by me from the UK.

Hong Kong, and brought the Falkland Islands from Hong Kong. It can be said that we are like brothers, and now they died fighting for the country. I have an obligation to care about the future life of their families."

Hearing what Paulson Bute said, John Feldhaus and Prince Andrew's views on him changed a lot. This man's future is absolutely unlimited. If he can really take care of the families of the fallen soldiers, he will definitely

Get more love and support from soldiers.

In fact, this was also the idea given to him by Heiyun's employees, and they asked him to give all the rewards he received this time to the soldiers below. You can just get the honor yourself, and you can't have all the good things done by yourself.

Prince Andrew said with a serious expression: "Please rest assured on this point, the empire will definitely guarantee the livelihood of the families of the soldiers who died fighting for the country. When I return, I will establish a retired soldiers association to specifically solve the life problems of the families of injured and sacrificed soldiers."

Major General Menendez, the top military commander of Argentina's Falklands Islands, has been brought over at this time. As the commander-in-chief of the task force, Admiral John Feldhouse wants to communicate with him. Even if the other party has been defeated, there are still many follow-up consequences.

Things need to be resolved.

Paulson-Bute handed over the surrender letter written by Menendez to John Federhaus. He was relieved after seeing that the old man was not angry. After all, he had been a little carried away before and did not correct the Argentine Menan.

The issue of Major General Dezi's name being written on the surrender document.

John Federhaus took out a pen and signed the notary's name on the surrender document, proving that he recognized the surrender document; this made both Menendez and Paulson-Bute very happy.

Menendez said it was because Britain truly accepted the surrender of the Afghan army. Although it was not a glorious thing for Argentina, it finally no longer had to fight and the soldiers no longer had to make unnecessary sacrifices.

Paulson-Butt is because his name can be written on such an important document. This is a document that will be displayed in a military museum. Future generations will definitely be able to see his name. It can be said that this war has gained a lot.

So unimaginable.

The reporters accompanying the army began to take pictures. These are the best news materials. In any case, Britain has achieved victory, which is a huge encouragement to the people at home.

This time the British did not deliberately embarrass the Argentines, and the surrender ceremony was very simple. The British also understood that if they went too far, Argentina would always come to make trouble, and it would not be easy to deal with it, and it was impossible to always fight across thousands of miles. The result now is very

good.

The victory of the war was celebrated throughout the country, and the Falkland Islands still belonged to the British Empire. It had proven itself internationally, and at the same time it had calmed down some colonies that were ready to move.

Argentina doesn't have much money now, and it may not be able to get the war reparations even if it kills them. The British Empire can only admit that it is unlucky. In fact, it can achieve its goal by making Argentina more peaceful, and they don't want to cause trouble.

When the war reaches this point, it is difficult for both sides to continue. Modern war is an extremely money-burning act. In less than three months of combat time, the British have already consumed the entire year's military budget. It can be said that the British military will spend the second half of the year.

Life may be very difficult for Fang, and it will be the same for Argentina, or even more serious.
